Cake made with margarine

Description

Delicious baked treat for the whole family. We'll add chocolate to both the cake layers and the frosting, resulting in a rich, flavorful, and very aromatic cake. I suggest baking two layers separately, but you can also bake one sponge cake and then slice it into two layers. If you love nuts, feel free to add them directly into the batter as well. See detailed instructions for making a chocolate cake with margarine below. Serve cooled or slightly warm.
